We could make a religion out of this.

Oh gross, that’s enough to end the retro market entirely. When the Switch 2 retires, the entire used game trade goes with it.
You know, unless hShop picks it up.

Here’s the problem: the one with the purple hair wants civil rights and safety, and the one with the red hat wants to punch the one with the purple hair repeatedly. Can’t really compromise like that. Need to fight red hat and billionaire at the same time, which is bullshit.

Man, I already don’t do verbs at people. I’m posting this to a website though, and that doesn’t involve people, but if you choose to read it, then I’m delighted. If we have that layer of internet abstraction, then we can do whatever we want?
I’m gonna go outside and touch some grass.
- Comment on low iq in love with high iq person, is that bad?? 5 weeks ago:
There are so many different kinds of intelligence, and pattern recognition is but only one. I’m sure that you’re intelligent in ways he can never aspire to be. That’s the thing about humans: alone, we’re pretty useless, but together, we contribute our different skills to make societies of wonder and magnificence.

Boo.
- Comment on Emulating PS2 for my Steam Deck, would love any recommendations! 1 month ago:
Well, if nothing else, it’s on my Steam Deck too, and the decks seem to make the game more accessible to people who don’t have an eight-hundred dollar bill lying around.

It’s my wife’s favorite game. She has a small shrine to it in her library!

The creator of this game has a habit of attacking people as “brain damaged.”
Don’t buy his works.

I mean, Downfall is right there.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
You called someone brain-damaged.
I’m not buying your game, specifically because you did that.

Disco Elysium has helped polish my English, and using those character concepts seems to help facilitate various lines of thought. Plus, since they’re now fairly well-known, I can use them as a short-hand for categories of feelings.

Honestly everyone needs therapy, but when you’re trans, you just *know*. You know deep down in your shivers, in your half-light. You know in a way that cis people can articulate in language, but will never truly be able to feel, to understand, to appreciate, to resonate.

Visibly queer minority here! I’m probably gonna go to jail sometime in the next year for being trans in public. Until I do though, I’ve been lobbying state congress about some of the bills on the docket.
- Comment on Anon has a busy day 2 months ago:
Dark patterns in gaming are the absolute worst and although I understand that they’re structured to cater to the worst impulses in human thought patterns, I still don’t understand why people can’t quit.
Then again, folks don’t quit drugs easy either.

I didn’t grow up in a place where Christianity was the norm, so nope, never baptized. I’ll just pirate some Jesus, that’s what he’d want.
- Comment on Snap, Crackle, Transubstantiate 2 months ago:
Sounds to me like I need to burgle mass and eat some Jesus on the down-low then.

You do get it. Also, there’s not monsters, just, uh, extruded humans coming out the other side.

The artist’s name is Junji Ito, so that you have an accurate search term and can find more of his works.
In real life, he’s a delightful and bright guy, but on the page, he gets pretty fucked up real quick. Good luck.
(I think most of my problem with Junji Ito is that he comes up with an incredibly graphic shock panel and then crafts the story around one or two violent bits of art, rather than making the art in service to the story. His pattern can get a bit repetitive.)
- Comment on Wish I could charge $100 a call attempt to these people 2 months ago:
My ring tone is two longs and a short and a pause, vibrating on my right wrist. No one can hear it, and I get to know when someone’s leaving me a voicemail cause I don’t answer my phone.

- Comment on How many games do you manage to play at the same time? 3 months ago:
A few. I’m playing through the bonus campaigns of Etherfields, while looking longingly at ISS Vanguard which I haven’t picked up in a week, while playing one-shot games of stuff like Twinfold and Balatro and Slay the Spire. Finished Silent Hill 2R recently and that was awesome.
I know this isn’t true for everyone, but narrative solo board gaming is really, really good for me, and lets me do a lot of gaming that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to do, what with my brain being all busted with stroke damage.
